Translate:

baigie: the purple-topped Swedish turnip.

Remember, way back, how we came to feel dull, hollow, dispirited and without purpose after that cosmic radiation burst that killed all the organic animals hereabouts.

Well! I cleared out my head pan of those odd old dry sticks and installed a turnip.

And I am telling you, I feel like my old self again. Buzzing.
